SAVED
I know very well how foolish the message of the cross sounds to those who are on the road to destruction. But we who are being saved recognize this message as the very power of God. (NLT 1 Corinthians 1:18)

I remember watching the spacecraft lift off and then seeing one of our own step onto the moon. At the point in time, mankind’s belief changed. We knew we could travel outside of the boundaries of this earth. The entire world watched that event unfold and today we have a space station orbiting the planet.

Before that event, the talk of space travel sounded foolish to most of mankind. It was something in the mind of science fiction writers. It was make believe, only possible on the big screen from Hollywood.

For those who have no belief in God’s existence, the message of the cross is like science fiction. However, I believe God has planted a seed in each of us and for those He has made ready, the message of the cross awakens that seed and faith arises. They are born again. As such, believers will be saved from eternal damnation.
